Auston Matthews out of Toronto Maple Leafs lineup with shoulder injury
TORONTO — Auston Matthews will be out of the Toronto Maple Leafs lineup with a shoulder injury when they host the Boston Bruins on Saturday.
“He’s day-to-day,” Leafs coach Mike Babcock confirmed following practice on Friday. “He’ll get looked at more today, and then we’ll know more about the day-to-day tomorrow.”
Babcock has used the term ‘day-to-day’ to describe an injury in which he feels a player will out of the lineup for approximately 10 days.
Matthews underwent an MRI on Friday morning, and a clearer indication of the severity of the injury is expected on Saturday.
